This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right axillary artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 03R54JZ

UNSPSC 85505029 Replacement of right axillary artery with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows a significant mismatch between its clinical nomenclature and the state and local procurement activity filed under it. The recent opportunities tagged to this code do not reflect vascular surgical procedures; instead, they capture administrative medical services, occupational health surveillance, health plan management, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary clinical staffing. State and local governments are not procuring surgical interventions under this code. The issuing bodies include a city retirement office (Phoenix), a city health benefits purchaser (Long Beach), a state transportation agency (Washington Department of Transportation), a county health system (Santa Clara), a county juvenile detention authority (Harris County), and a county benefits consortium (Collier County). No pattern of repeat buyers or specialized demand emerges from the recent solicitations.

The geographic spread spans Arizona, California, Washington, and Florida, reflecting scattered procurement activity with no regional concentration. Representative recent opportunities include the City of Phoenix Retirement Office's RFP for independent medical evaluation services (RTMRFP26001, due October 16, 2026) to summarize disability records and schedule examinations for approximately 75 annual pension applications, with a five-year maximum contract value of $750,000; the Washington State Department of Transportation's RFP for occupational medical surveillance services (RFP20260825, due October 9, 2026) to conduct baseline, periodic, and exit examinations for ferry workers across 14 locations; and the County of Santa Clara Health System's qualification solicitation for temporary health professional staffing across 13 ancillary clinical categories (RFSQHHSFY270052, due October 7, 2026). The code contains minimal relevant recent activity and appears to be a cataloging error — the clinical procedure code does not align with the administrative and occupational health services state and local buyers are actually procuring.
